Defending Her Pastor.

Rev. r. W. Todd, in his recent work,
"Methodism of the Peninsula, tells this
story: In the last years before the war
feeling on the slavery question ran dam
gerously high, and those Methodist
preachers in Virginia who were even sus.
pected of leaning toward abolitionism
were threatened with tar and feathers
and other forms of injury. The Rev.
James A. Massey was particularly obnox-
ious to the mob element, and was re-
peatedly warned not to preach He never
paid any attention to threats, but his
meetings were sometimes forcibly broken
up. Once while he was holding service
committee" headed by one Dick
Ayres, stalwart fellow of $50 pounds,
entered the church, and Avres, mount
ing to the side of the preacher, began to
harangue the mob. At this juncture a
devout sister, aged seventy years, climbed
over the altar-rail, ascended the pulpit
stairs, colared Ayres, and with dex-
terous jerk laid him upon his back on the
floor Then she grabbed him by his
long hair and pounded his head against
the planks until he begged for mercy.
The men sat still in amazement the
women prepared 10 defend their pastor,
and would probably have driven out the
mob by force if Mr.. Massey had not sus-
pended the services and dispersed the
congregation.

Fashions i'm MnIalies.

Most physicians are likely toshave the
ories about diseases rather than actual
knowledge thereof because, being ig-
norant of what is going on inside the
human body. they are forced to surmise
and infer, from certain data, often in
sufficient Their theories seem to enioy
a kind of periodcitv. Physicians look
to this or that organ, and usually find, or
think they find, that its arrangement lies
at the base of the trouble. In the same
way specialists always discover in pa
tients what is their speciality, whether it
be nerves, brain, heart, liver, lungs or
kidneys, as most of us are prone to find
what we seek. Until Richard Bright
had published his treatises, forty-six
and torty-seven years ago, no one had
supposed the kidneys affected, and he
might not have turned his attention to
this disorder but from his own nephritic
suferings, which finally caused his
death. Bright's disease gets its name
from him, and ever since he described
its symptoms physicians have regarded
the kidneys as the source of numberless
ailments. Every one must have noticed
how constantly nowadays the cause of
mortality is called Brights disease;
often, indeed, when it is something
else. Many of the ablest and most ex-
perienced practitioners regard Brights
disease, or albumenuria, as a combina-
tion of diseases rather than aseparate and
distinct disease. This would account
for the number of old persons who are
thought to die of Albumenuria A man
who has long been i'll must be affected
in different organs, the arrangement of
one causing the arrangement of another.
Thus a general breaking down is called
albumenuria. The kidneys have in the
way of diagnoses, nearly had their run,
which has lasted almost half century.
The liver is now having its turn, and ere
long no doubt most disorders will be at
tributed thereto. This is moderately
safe, because its condition is hard to de-
termine, and theory will answer in the
absence of facts. There are cras and
fashions in maladies, as in other things,
and at present the liver may be said to
be coming in.-Nelo York Commercial.

Anomalies of Smell.

Peculiarities of the sense of smell form
a subject o investigation by Mr.. Arthur
Mitchell, of Edinburgh. Among those
observed thus far is that of person who
smells nothing from bed f mignonette,
and of another who perceives no odor
from the bean field, the sense being 9TH
erwise acute and discriminating in both
cases. Another person can discover no
difference between certain odors which
are very different to others; while there
are persons who are sickened by certain
odors which usually give pleasure. A
considerable number of persons seem to
he altogether destitute of the sense Of
smell and on the other hand there are
n few who have the sense very strongly
deyolved,

Saved by a Dog.

The four-year-old child of John B.
Bacigalupo was trying to cross the street
railroad track on the south side of the
market-house, when, frightened by the
near approach of car, the little fellow

could be done, dog, sitting with his
master at the corner of the market house,
rushed TO the child and pulled it from
the track by its clothes just as the wheels
were about to crush it,
Everyone was astonished at the act of
the dog, which was remarkably wise and
intelligent. The rescue of the child was
observed by large number of people.

Drinking His Health.

Every time Louis XIV went hunting
forty bottles of wine formed an indis-
pensable paIt of the impedimenta. 1t is
true the King never drank himself on
such occasions; while his courtiers inva-
riably tested their loyalty by tossing off
copious draughts to the health of their
royal master One day, however, Louis,
feeling thirsty, quite unexpectedly called
for glass of wine. A iootman stated,
in great alarm, that there was none left.
"Were not forty bottles brought with US
to-day. as usual2n ooh, yes, your Ma
jesty; but they are all drank" 'These
in future" quietly replied the King.

In the last six months there has hardly
been day when New York city Employ
ment bureaus have not had twice as many
applications on hand for servants as for
places. Comparatively few girls will
take places where heavy work is re-
quired. A great many ladies 60 down
to Castle Garden and get their servants.
Occasionally they get prizes, but they
run great risk. Nearly every boarding
house in town has at least three or four
employment agencies constantly on the
watch for them for help. The wages
paid now are higher than at any time in
many years. From SIS to $40 month
with board and lodging are the regular
rates. The chief complaint received at
the employment bureaus is that after the
housekeepers in private families have
been to good deal of trouble and spent
considerable time in training them into
good servants from an ignorant and IN
couth condition, the girls leave to be-
come chambermaids in big boarding
houses or hotels, where there is more
excitement, but not near as good a
home.

Station, in Central Africa, look like a
village of the Zanzibar coast, have thrown

PEELED King Leopold's white agents to
abandon the station and retreat down the
river. DR.. Lenz wrote early this year
that these slave dealers had far more in
fiuence at Stanley Falls than the Congo
white men welded. Here, in the heart
of King Leopolds territories, they have
at last openly manifested their hostility
to the advancing white influences that
are threatening their supremacy in Cen
tral Africa. 1t was these gentry whom
General Gordon was employed to deal
with just before his fate changed his
plans and sent him to Khartoum instead
Of the Congo. How to manage these
powerful Arabs will henceforth be puz-
